Applications

GRG Column Cover Installation

Non combustible and lightweight GRG column covers are typically installed with screws and adhesive. After attachment, the joints between the sections are taped and floated together to create a monolithic, seamless appearance. The column covers are then ready for paint or other finish options. Installation details are provided with the shop drawings.

General Guidelines for GRG Column Cover Installation

Joints in GRG column covers are finished similar to gypsum board in according to ASTM C-475 guidelines. Fiberglass tape is recommended.

Column covers are typically made to length, but if cutting is required, a dry diamond saw blade or a fine toothed carbide tipped metal blade is recommended. As with all gypsum, fiberglass or construction materials avoid breathing the dust. (See installation instructions).

When dry and dust free, prime and paint or finish the GRG column covers as desired.

As with any gypsum product, GRG column covers that are to receive a semi gloss or gloss finishes will require additional preparation of the surface.
